Sayani
Gupta
who
starred
in
Akshay
Kumar's
Jolly
LLB
2
was
offered
the
role
of
a
Cricket
Analyst
in
a
web
series
and
the
actress
revealed
that
she
literally
freaked
out
when
the
makers
approached
her
as
there
are
very
less
female
analysts
for
the
game
of
cricket.
She
said,
"Honestly
I
was
freaking
out
when
the
director,
Karan
Anshuman,
asked
me
to
play
this
technically
sound
character,
who
knows
so
much
about
cricket."
She
further
commented,
"I
play
the
character
of
Rohini,
who
is
the
team
analyst,
she
is
the
brain
behind
the
team.
It's
very
rare
in
our
country,
but
abroad,
the
trend
of
having
a
female
cricket
analyst
is
normal.
So,
I
actually
had
to
figure
out
the
technicalities
behind
the
game."
Preparing
herself
for
the
role
of
a
Cricket
Analyst
was
not
easy
and
Sayani
Gupta
had
to
contact
her
family,
friends
and
other
known
people
to
gain
more
info
about
the
whole
process
of
cricket
and
what
goes
on
behind
the
scenes.
She
said,
"It's
tough.
Cricket
is
a
very
complex
game
and
only
if
you
have
followed
it
for
a
long
time,
you
would
understand
it
completely.
Although
it
was
very
challenging,
it
was
also
fun
to
play
this
character
in
the
web
series.
She
is
such
a
geek
and
so
effortlessly
brilliant."
Apart
from
the
web
series,
Sayani
Gupta
would
also
be
seen
in
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
Katrina
Kaif
starrer
Jagga
Jasoos
and
the
surprising
part
is
that
she'll
be
playing
the
role
of
a
14-year-old-girl
in
the
film.
She
said,
"It's
the
best
casting
of
my
life.
I
love
dada
(Anurag
Basu)
to
have
had
the
imagination
to
see
me
as
a
little
girl
who
is
all
of
14
years.
I
loved
his
audition
process
as
well,
it
was
so
simple.
He
is
quite
a
genius
and
this
character
will
always
be
very
close
to
my
heart.
People
who
have
seen
me
in
the
look
can't
believe
that
I
am
not
a
teen."
